SUNDAY STILLS CHALLENGE - CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS AND LIGHTS

Season's Greetings from Skoog Farm!

We all celebrate in different ways. The wreath above was a gift to us from Louise and Jack...it hangs on a piece of Stewart sculpture outside our kitchen door.

Gary (my husband) hand paints Christmas cards every year. His style is that of an "outsider" artist. I have to paint mine today.








The store window of Country Treasures, a quaint little shop in our village.

Cookies from Christina's World....


I saved the best for last...a Christmas tribute to Sunshine, who presented Ariana and Daniela with the best present ever (last winter).

I love the Christmas decorations (and the sleighing) but I sure hope the kitchen door sculpture/wreath wasn't supposed to resemble anyone in the family?? Horrors. He's a delightful creature.

The sleigh shot is great. Looks cold and fun. Those cards look very nice too. Merry Christmas.
